Spring break is here kids have a week without school with nothing to do.

The West Side Recreation and Park District hopes to alleviate that quiet time with a series of activities.

Events started Saturday and continue all this week

Monday, the WSRPD will hold a barbecue lunch and movie for those between the kindergarten and sixth grade.

Hot dogs and chips will be served and the Rise of the Guardians will be shown. The event costs $3 per person and will go from 11:30 a.m.-1:15 p.m.

The following Tuesday, the WSRPD will host a couple of events starting with the sidewalk chalk art at 10 a.m.
